The Pursuit of Impact

In this episode of ‘Found in Translation’, we discuss academia’s pursuit of impact and the growing demand for researchers to engage effectively in conversation with a broader audience. How does the academic community respond to this demand? And what happens to research outputs when communicated to broader society in pursuit of impact? I ask senior business writer and journalist from the Financial times, Andrew Hill, how he as a journalist engages with academic research in his communication with broader society. I also ask Assistant Professor Pedro Monteiro from CBS about his experience with journalism as a vehicle for transmitting his research to a broader audience.
The episode’s guest speakers are Andrew Hill, Financial Time’s senior business writer and Assistant Professor Pedro Monteiro from IOA at CBS. The episode is hosted and moderated by Ph.D. fellow Malia Carvalho.
